[0:00]" How about our young Sox last night's abrupt dismissal of the regular season. Best record holding angels provide following the Celtics embarrassment of the lakers yet another humiliation for an LA team. Proving that hype has its limits. But it's also an endorsement of an underlying Red -- philosophy that is a pleasure to watch unfold. As cliched as that sounds Red Sox management and most of the players appear to believe that the team concept takes priority over individual egos. Thus in 2004. Nomar and he is excessive ego were expendable and that teams still prospered. After that Pedro Martinez and Johnny Damon were allowed to leave. When their salary demands were deemed excessive that opened the door for the quicker development of young stars like John -- and Jacoby Ellsbury. This year when -- foolishness became a blight on the team's psyche he was replaced as well with so far no real facts. Communal interest valued over selfishness. From vac -- an interesting concept. Another thing that makes the Red Sox work it's a meritocracy. That also provides equal opportunity. It doesn't seem to matter Terry Francona if you produce immediately or not be thinks you can play and you're giving maximum effort he will get a chance to play even if you struggle as Dustin Pedroia did last year. If you can't do the job and someone else can well then your Julio Lugo. And that's a final thing I notice about the Sox that should serve them well against Tampa. They know how to win in the playoffs the angels did not and -- never even been here before. The rays helps strong picturing a sharp manager and a well balanced team just like the Sox. But mark my words that one crucial difference. Will make all the difference starting Friday night."
